Car haulers transport 8-10 vehicles per load between dealerships, auctions, ports, and manufacturers. Rates are per-vehicle rather than per-mile, with premium pricing for enclosed transport and long-distance moves.

Car Hauler Market in the Midwest

The Midwest flatbed market is driven by steel production (Indiana, Ohio), agricultural equipment, and construction materials. Detroit's automotive supply chain generates consistent loads of raw materials and components. Seasonal patterns follow construction cycles, with peak demand from March through October. The flat terrain and grid-like highway system allow efficient routing with fewer weather-related restrictions than mountain regions.
